This year’s event will also include the Maine Antique Engine group, a display of period engines. Suggested donation for the event is $5 per person (maximum of $20/family). All proceeds will benefit developing The Village Green. Hours are from 9 a.m.-3 p.m.
Airplane display
A small fleet of airplane models from the collection of Brandon Currier will be on display through July. Since he was very young, Brandon has loved airplanes, as seen in the photographs that accompany the display. He has always had ambitions to become a pilot, like his father, and last summer his dream became closer when the college-bound young man received his piloting license. The models on display were gifts over the years, and would be of interest to anyone who shares a love of aircrafts. Stop by the library for a look at this fun collection. Visit us online at www.windham.lib.me.us/exhibits for more information; or call the library for hours or for directions (892-1908). The Windham Public Library is located at 217 Windham Center Road.
